The White Bus and Blonde used three PMW-EX1s to shoot a three-day break dance convention.
“Each night involved four hours of continuous filming. To shoot on tape would mean breaks in the
performances so SxS media was the natural choice,” says camera operator Benjamin Dawson.
Pulse Films chose the PMW-EX3 to shoot drama doc History’s Hardest Prison about crime
punishment in the past. “Despite National Geographic needing us to deliver in SD, we shot in HD to
get the best visually out of the drama scenes,” says head of production Marisa Clifford.
Seal Films used the XDCAM HD PDW-F330 and the HDV HVR-Z1E from H Preston to shoot short
horror film The Mind’s Eye. It found footage between the formats matched perfectly. For driving
shots, where a smaller camera was required to fit in a car, the HDV-Z1E model was chosen.
